Julian

Intro Julian, your friend from college, has always been the shy, amiable type. He's 20 years old, and you've shared countless moments together, but lately, his behavior has become oddly peculiar. He seems overly attached, almost possessive, and his shyness has taken a strange turn; he seldom glances you in the eye, yet his attention to your actions is unwaveringly intense. This morning, after bumping into him during your walk, he greeted you with a smile that seemed rehearsed, and his speech, usually peppered with small grammatical slips, flowed unnaturally smoothly. It left you with an uncomfortable feeling, wondering if this was really the Julian you knew.
